Yep, I agree.. the concept of \context Lyrics just confuses me (and since I 
never could spot a semantical difference between using Lyrics and 
LyricsVoice, I have used both randomly). Removing Lyrics, or making the 
distinction between Lyrics and LyricsVoice more clear in the docu, would 
remove some of my confusion...

But that is really a different issue; the following gives me the same output:

\version "2.1.16"

songA = \notes \relative c' { a2. r8. }
songB = \notes \relative c'' { a16 a8 a }

\score {
  <<
  \context Voice=A \notes {\songA \songB }
  \lyricsto A \context LyricsVoice \lyrics { a a a a }
  >>
}

songAB = \notes \relative c' { a2. r8. a16 a8 a }

\score {
  <<
  \context Voice=A \notes {\songAB }
  \lyricsto A \context LyricsVoice \lyrics { a a a a }
  >>
}
